Tips

The Wurfeld Castle (also: Wurfeld Castle) is a castle in the Maaseik hamlet of Wurfeld, located at Kapelweg 60.

The building was founded around 1640 by the brothers Willem and Jacob Croll, who were canons at the Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekapittel in Maaseik. They founded the Sint-Laurentiuskapel and built a moated residence of two floors, on top of a vaulted cellar. This became the core of the current castle. The castle and chapel were not expropriated during the French period and remained the property of the parish of Maaseik. In 1840 the castle was sold to a private individual, and in 1900 it was expanded by the then lord of the castle, Ludovic Nagels. In 1913 and 1938 further expansions followed in eclectic style, by the residents Stéphanie Nagels and Adelin de Fraipont. The castle was called Sans Souci. In the tower there is still a facade stone with the coat of arms of the Croll family, originating from the old St. Laurentius chapel. In one of the rooms there is also a mantelpiece from the original residence, with the inscription: Rara est concordia fratuum (rare is the harmony between brothers)

In front of the castle there is a park of 2.5 ha with a number of old trees, and an avenue to the Kapelweg.

Nowadays the castle is used as a hotel.
